this use to be my favorite Mexican restaurant. staff changed prices jumped up quality went wayyy down. we ordered the super nachos and it had no queso the beef was dried out crumbled. wasn't nachos at all. also the rice and chicken add queso. again it had no queso and almost no chicken. we ended up ordering the exact same thing from Pancho which was half the price and 100 times better food.
We celebrated a birthday there today. The food was spectacular, the atmosphere was amazing and Raul, our server, was efficient, friendly and fun! We will definitely be return customers!!
Food was pretty good. It was a little stuffy but overall I would go their again. I had the Fried avocado which was really good.
